Alignment Readings after installing Tein SS

Hey everyone, I've been a lurker on this quite for sometime now and never really decided to start posting until just recently. Well to make a long story short, we got the oem bodykit, tein ss, and axis matrix wheels installed a couple weeks ago. Just this past weekend, I got the alignment and these are the results. It's a little faint and i apologize.



I'm not sure if it will load up properly but just to sum it up

Front: Left

Camber: -0.93
Caster: 3.41
Toe: -0.01in

Front: Right

Camber: -1.30
Caster:3.43
Toe:0.00in

Rear: Left

Camber: -2.28
Toe: 0.04

Rear: Right

Camber: -2.17
Toe: 0.04

I've read the sticky in regards to camber kits but I'm assuming with this much camber in the rear, it's going to wear a little more than i'd like. Now here's my question:

With my camber being as "bad" as it is in the rear, which camber kit should I run? I know SPC and Ingalls both have one but is one better than the other? Which specific model should i get? Thanks everyone in advance!

i had spc on my Honda and it worked great they all work the same just make sure the kit allows enough adjustment so you can set the camber where you want it.

yeah tell me about it italian_spak...it's too bad cause it's only a Monday too! As far as the drop, all i know is that I have a little less than a finger gap.

Big Moe, thanks for the suggestion. I actually went ahead and ordered the ingalls camber kit for the car.

Thanks for the responses everyone.

Keep in mind when lowering- the recently discovered rule used by LE in California

Headlights must be 22 inches from the ground Minimum

What a way to get busted for everything else!

i apologize for the poor pictures and the dirty car but it's inside the garage...i'm too embarrassed to park it outside with one stock wheel on the driverside front. When I take better pictures, i'll post it in the proper forum

Ingalls offers a better setup than SPC, at least for the rear. Ingalls sells 2 arms for each side, one for camber and one for toe.
